12/18: XU Volunteer for Typhoon Sendong Victims

After the Typhoon Sendong has struck CDO last 12/16, no one can’t stop anymore the viral posts, photos and statuses regarding it at Facebook. Well, that’s good news. At least now Facebook has been used for something worthy and not just mere posting of photos for laughs.

12/18:

But what really caught my attention days after the Typhoon Sendong, is this:

Guys we need a lot of nursing student volunteers.. Xavier covered courts is now used as a relocation site for victim families. The med students are now there and they are in need of SN to assist & take VS of patients. Its a 24 hour service so we’ll do reshuffling. Pls be in the campusif possible now.

As a nurse, I do not want to stay home worthless right? When the rest of the people out there crying for help. So, I went out brought my bp app with stet to lend a hand. Below, is a picture taken at our XU covered courts.

Help CDO

12/19:

For this day, I am with another group of people. If I went out alone during 12/18, today I am with my nursing batchmates planning out for the next day’s agenda to help our fellow batchmates affected by the Typhoon Sendong.

It’s always a good thing that in good times and in bad times, our batch has remained intact no matter what. In drinking times, happy times and now “a no-drinking times”(since water supply is not back yet), we still make time to meet, plan and make actions just like the good old school times during case presentations and other presentations.

We also use the chance to talk each and every event that had happened from the past few days even months not seeing each other. But of course, Typhoon Sendong tops them all. And I am shocked with all the stories shared during the meeting and planning.

The NLE Butuan takers having their in-house review in Peak who experienced a very traumatic life-after death situation during the Typhoon Sendong.

Our batchmate who became a superhero who saved almost everyone in the family.

Events that you can say “Everything really happens for a reason” because if the overnight push through, he/she should have lost his/her mother. (something like that)

The overall traumatic situation experienced by NLE takers affected by the Typhoon Sendong who never really got focus during the exam. And the NLE takers outnumbered by the vacant seats in the room. Such a sad experience for them.

Thoughts “like last year during the NLE board exam, a tragedy also happened and today, the Typhoon Sendong” and question such as why?

After a sad and heart-breaking conversation, we have finalized the list of our batchmates affected by the Typhoon Sendong and the plan as well.
